Vision 4 Music Songwriting Contest

Continuing the contest trend in my latest posts, here's another contest for songwriters put on by the folks at Vision 4 Music. You have to have an account with Vision 4 Music (free), and the entry fee is $25.00 USD per song (no categories). From the website:

The Vision 4 Music Song Contest was created to help amateur songwriters on their road to becoming professional songwriters, plus to provide a music portal/platform to have their songs heard.

The Vision 4 Music Songwriting Contest awards are:

First Prize - starting at $2500 (juried)

Second Prize - $1000 (popular vote)

Third Prize - $500 (juried)

There are two ways to win: the first and third prizes are juried awards. The Vision 4 Music judges will be considering your song's melody, composition, lyrics and originality, and the two songs that rate most highly in these categories will win.

The second prize is awarded based on popular vote on their website, www.vision4music.com. All submissions can be reviewed online. You must pay for each song submitted for consideration, but there is no limit to the number of songs and supporting material you may submit to build your fan base on our website and influence the popular vote.

Good luck to you if you decide to enter, and may the Muse be with you...

May the Muse be with You

Just anxious to get some of the songs I've written and am writing published. Also, I'm learning to hone this songwriting craft. I've purchased an Acer laptop (a second one after my original one was stolen) and some equipment (TASCAM US-122mkII external sound card, Fostex PM0.4 monitor speakers and an M-Audio Axiom 49 Keyboard Controller) and software (REAPER DAW) for this purpose.
